Breathe, Balance and Bloom expressive watercolour workshop

Join us for an expressive, creative workshop with watercolour and ink. This guided afternoon will help you embrace the organic fluidity of watercolour, while painting and drawing observations from still-life plants. Focus on the process of these mediums, learning tips and techniques to utilize your tools and loosen-up your illustrations to have a natural flow, with an invitation to further your experience by checking in with yourself and tapping into the therapeutic benefits of art practices.

We'll have a beautiful selection of florals from Seeds flower shop to draw inspiration from for this workshop!

When: Saturday, April 18th from 1:00-4:00pm
Where: Lebel Mansion
Ages: 18+
$75 each includes all supplies

In this workshop the practices are more about process than product and there will be a guided landing or check in at the beginning and opportunities to reflect as a group throughout.

Attendees are welcome to bring along their own plants and florals for inspiration or simply enjoy what is provided!
